Does this sound Like You?
Whether you're planning a trip to France or Québec, or simply want to feel more comfortable speaking French again, this workshop will give you the real-life speaking practice you need to feel ready.
“I'm a bit rusty with my French, but I've always wanted to pick it back up.”
You'll build confidence using practical French again without feeling like you're starting from scratch.
“I dream of sitting on a café terrasse in Paris or Montréal, soaking in the French around me.”
I'll help you enjoy that experience instead of worrying about what to say.
“I've tried ordering in French, but people still switch to English."
You'll practice natural phrases so that you can keep the conversation going en français.
“I've mostly learned French with apps, but I still freeze in real conversations."
Practice speaking in a welcoming environment with feedback from an experienced teacher.

Meet your
French Teacher!
Bonjour, je m'appelle Natalie!
I'm a French instructor with a PhD in Second Language Acquisition, and over the past 13 years, I've helped more than 1,400 adults build confidence speaking French.
One thing I've learned is that most learners don't struggle because they "aren't good at languages." They struggle because they haven't had enough opportunities to practice speaking French in real-life situations with someone there to guide them.
That's exactly why I created this free workshop.
Whether you're planning a trip to France or Québec or simply want to feel more comfortable speaking French again, my goal is to help you leave with practical language you can actually use the next time you step into a café or restaurant.
I can't wait to meet you!
— Natalie
